If a doctor is willing to stand there with their thumb up their asshole while their patient dies an easily preventable death, they're a failure as a doctor and as a human being. At best, it's negligent manslaughter.
If you're too much of a cowardly little rat to stand up against fascism to save a life, don't be a fucking doctor; quit and go work at Taco Bell you belong.
A doctor that throws away a career of helping people to make a political point once is probably not helping as many people as a doctor that avoids going to jail.
I understand the impulse here but the reality is that texas legislators would probably prefer to reduce the number of doctors available to the poors.
Yea! Why don't they all just line up to lose their medical licenses? That way they can't help anyone!
Shortsighted dumbass...
Must be nice living in your sheltered little bubble where the deaths are abstract and doing the right thing when lives are at stake is the wrong thing to do.
You're a morally bankrupt scumbag. People like you are the reason fascists win.
Don't let your ego hit you in the face when you open your eyes dickhead. Go throw yourself on a spear instead of telling other people they should you fucking degenerate keyboard coward.
The people who voted to change the laws to prevent doctors doing their job don't deserve the benefit of medical care, the rest are collateral damage from the actions of idiots; not the inaction of doctors you braindead troglodyte.
No actually it's you standing on the safe sideline screaming from the top of your lungs that doctors should be throwing their lives away and go to prison for life to help a single patient that the state has decided to murder.
If they did that then all the good doctors would be in prison after a week. Not a great plan. And I bet you'd be singing a different tune if it was your life on the line.
It's easy to tell someone else to give up their freedom. What are you willing to risk over this issue, O righteous keyboard warrior?
Now your knocking Taco Bell employees??? They are just trying to make a living like everyone else.....
Not making a good case for yourself.
Once all these doctors fall on their swords, who'll be left to treat the rest of us?
I understand your sentiment, but it's misdirected.
